Finish on Afterburner II

Our Standard finish is a hand-rubbed oil finish. This is the standard finish in the boutique bass business. It’s very thin, has the least effect on tone, but will wear relatively easily.

As an optional upgrade we also offer gloss polyester. We use a special polyester that’s been formulated for electric guitars. It not only looks great, but it sounds great too. The bodies almost look like they’ve been dipped in glass, yet the finish is extremely thin allowing it to be acoustically transparent.
